Armpit Shields

Armpit shields are fabric liners that are designed to absorb the
excessive sweating of the
armpit - thereby protecting clothing from sweat stains.

There are millions of sweat glands located all over the human
body. In the armpit areas (axillae), many special sweat glands -
known as the apocrine sweat glands - can be found. Contrary to
popular belief, though, the problem with the armpits and excessive
sweating isn't so much the number of sweat glands as much as the
physicality of the underarm area itself.

Unlike other exposed areas of the body - such as the arms and
legs - the armpit doesn't allow sweat to easily and quickly
evaporate as it is a shaded area. For most people, that's why there
is excessive sweating in the armpit areas. There are consequences
to this excessive
perspiration, such as sweat stains, body odor, and lost
confidence.

And this is where armpit shields come in.

There are many different brands of shields available for the
armpit. Most shields are attached directly to the clothing, and
tend to come in three types - permanent, reusable, and
disposable.

PURAX offers a unique solution to the problem of armpit sweating - the PURAX Pure
Pads.

PURAX Pure Pads are the world's first and only patented
self-adhesive armpit shields that are placed directly onto the
underarm. PURAX's unique armpit application has its advantages.

First off, having the pads hugging the armpit enables faster and
more efficient sweat absorption. As a result, sweat is not allowed
to resonate on the skin and feed bacteria, so odor is effectively
and naturally reduced.

Second, with the PURAX Pure Pads there is, in contrast to other
shields, essentially no risk of leaving residue on or damaging your
clothing because the pads are placed directly onto the underarm
area.

Lastly, the PURAX Pure Pads allow the user to have maximum
comfort and mobility due to the patented butterfly-shaped design
and unique underarm application. All in all, PURAX Pure Pads are
superior armpit shields for the twenty-first century.
